Where do you keep your range finder in the tree?

I range a bunch of spots and the clip it to my harness with one of those retractable things Ar1220's talkin' bout. It kind of just dangles there, but easy to grab if i need it.

I range my spots once in the stand. Then I hang it on my bow holder, which means it hangs down beside the tree. My holder is screwed into the tree above my head. The rangefinder is then easily accessible while totally being out of the way.

Ive got an extra quiver mount on the side of my treestand on the top half of my climber, I have a small hook screwed in quiver that I hang my rangefinder on...I replaced the string on rangefinder with a small one just for that hook,..I can ease another arra out or grab rangefinder with very little movement if needed, I'll hang calls there too at times...

My harness has bino straps and pockets. I loop the range finder cord around the bino strap on the right and put it into the pocket of the harness.
Like N2 I range objects around me out to 35 yards once I get settled. That way I got a pretty good idea how far once one gets in range. With this set up, I can get to it quick and if I drop it it is tethered and doesn’t fall to the ground.

I range all shooting lanes/trees up to 60 yards and specifically focus on areas 30-45 yards out. Not too much arrow drop 30 and in so if one sneaks in close I can pull back and shoot without having to take the time to range again. My range finder goes in my side leg pocket after that.

Back into my pack after I settle in and range landmarks within about 25 yards.
